Another new series from The CW - space thriller The 100 starring Eliza Taylor - has also been acquired by E4.

Channel 4 meanwhile will air Toni Collette's new drama Hostages - which premieres on CBS in the US in September.

"Channel 4 has had real success with Warner Bros shows such as The Big Bang Theory and 2 Broke Girls so I'm thrilled to be bringing more of the best acquisitions to the Channel 4 network," said chief creative officer Jay Hunt.
